Im Vergleich zu „Pionierbranchen“ wie Mode oder Medien steht der Online-Handel mit Lebensmitteln erst am Anfang. Dabei kann dieser zu einem Wettbewerbsvorteil werden – wenn der Handel es richtig angeht. Auf der anderen Seite steht das Risiko einer strategischen Falle, d.h. es wird unter Umständen aufgrund der Widerstände beim Verbraucher nur ein Nischenmarkt bedient, der eine geringe Profitabilität aufweist. Im Spannungsfeld „Marktpotenzial auf Handelsseite“ vs. „Zurückhaltung beim Verbraucher“ rücken dabei Fragen der Kommunikationspolitik im Online-Lebensmittelhandel in den Fokus. Für eine erfolgreiche Umsetzung stellt eine eindeutige Typologie eine notwendige Basis dar, um die konkreten Bedürfnisse potenzieller Konsumenten anzusprechen. Ein Engagement im eFood-Bereich ist daher als Investition in die zukünftige Entwicklung der Märkte und ihrer Zielgruppen zu betrachten. Although online trading in the food sector is still in early stages, it may become a competitive edge – if retailers go about it the right way. On the other hand, due to consumer resistance, there is the risk of serving only a niche market, which cannot be maintained in terms of profitability. Therefore, a stronger focus on communication policies is needed. Engaging in the eFood sector finally has to be seen as an important investment into future markets and their target groups.

AbstractStandard economic theory does not capture trust among anonymous Internet traders. But when traders are allowed to have social preferences, uncertainty about a seller’s morals opens t he door for trust, reward, exploitation and reputation building. We report experiments suggesting that sellers’ intrinsic motivations to be trustworthy are not sufficient to sustain trade when not complemented by a feedback system. We demonstrate that it is the interaction of social preferences and cleverly designed reputation mechanisms that solves to a large extent the trust problem on Internet market platforms. However, economic theory and social preference models tend to underestimate the difficulties of promoting trust in anonymous online trading communities.

This study used a qualitative descriptive approach to describe the occupational shift experienced by women to obtain equality through online business. Starting an online business is not a simple task for women. The struggle to master technology is not easy, since women should get familiar with softwares and hardwares. They should seek networks to obtain customers and strengthen their own business as well. Women should organize their online business, such as attaining capital, searching for models, looking for materials, mastering online trading system, and at the same time seeking out available opportunities.

Along these lines, the three imperative security issues occur each day in our universe of straightforward design, even more decisively: recognizable proof, confirmation and approval. Distinguishing proof is a procedure that empowers acknowledgment of a substance, which might be either, a human, a machine, or another advantage, for example, a product program. In security frameworks, validation and approval are two reciprocal systems for figuring out who can get to the data assets over a system. Numerous arrangements have been proposed in the writing, from a straightforward secret phrase to late advancements dependent on RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) or biometrics. This paper gives an outline on existing verification techniques, and its upsides and downsides when planning online assistance.

Purpose This paper aims to study the pricing strategies of an online trading platform with indirect network externalities by considering heterogeneous trading behavior in the downstream market and the long tail. Design/methodology/approach The game theory, optimization and comparative static are used in this research. The equilibria are derived from the game theory, and with them, the authors optimize the platform’s profit function. Comparative static is used to study pricing strategies. Findings It is found that with heterogeneous trading behavior, the transaction-based model is more profitable than the subscription-based model by reason of the feasibility of “price discrimination”. However, with certain advantages of subscription fees such as avoiding offline transactions, the subscription-based model is better with a concentrated distribution of sellers’ revenues (the Gini coefficient is small). With a lucrative long tail, the platform should set a low price to attract small sellers in the long tail. Besides, if the Gini coefficient is large, the effects of the market entry barrier of sellers on the optimal price in each model may be opposite. Research limitations/implications It implies that the choice of revenue models and pricing strategies are influenced by the Gini coefficient or the long tail. The exogenous setting in which buyers can use the platform for free needs further extension. Practical implications The authors provide insights on how to choose revenue models and how to price the sellers with the long tail phenomenon. Originality/value This paper emphasizes the role of the long tail on pricing strategies and the effect of heterogeneous trading behavior on model selection.
